GoogleDriveCompanion

I was playing with the "google-drive-ruby" gem and thought it was awesome.

I don't like leaving the terminal, so I thought, meh, I am going to write a gem that allows me to push from the command line.

Then, I figured: "Yo!" The handshake takes to long, so why not set of a unix server socket to run as a daemon, listening for my google drive commands so that it will go faster.

Sweetness!

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'google_drive_companion'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install google_drive_companion

Usage

Get help

gdrive help

Start the server using environment variables

[email protected] password=hunter2 gdrive start

Or create a file in your ~/.google_drive/conf.yaml:

username: [email protected]
password: hunter2

Toggle the foreground/daemon flag when you start the server (def. as a daemon):

gdrive start [run_in_foreground]

Upload a file:

gdpush /path/to/file.txt

Upload a file from the current dir:

gdpush this.txt

Upload a file from the current dir, to a remote location:

gdpush this.txt remote/path/to/that.txt

Move a remote file to another remote folder:

gdmv /path/to/file.txt /another/path

Download the new file:

gdpull /another/path/file.txt

Trash the file:

gddel /another/path/file.txt

Trash whole folders, with reckless abandon!

gddel another

Kill the server:

gdrive stop
